Special Exhibitions at The Bryan Museum
Special Exhibitions are an amazing way for The Bryan Museum to shed light on untold stories and highlight extraordinary people, events, eras, subcultures, and movements that contribute to the story of Texas, Galveston, and the American West. These dynamic exhibitions are here on display for a limited time, but some go on to become traveling exhibits. They range from select items from The Bryan Museum vault that have been curated for a themed exhibition to special collections from museum partners across the country.
Exhibition Premieres for Members
The Bryan Museum’s members have a chance to view Special Exhibitions before they open to the public! All members get invited to Members’ Opening Night receptions at select exhibition premieres, where they can explore the exhibition, enjoy drinks and hors d’oeuvres, socialize with other members, and even meet individuals involved in the making of the exhibit.
